My AC clicks but the compressor does not turn on. What is wrong?

Clicking from the outdoor unit without the compressor starting usually means a worn contactor. The contactor is the relay that sends power to the compressor. When its contacts are pitted or worn, it clicks but cannot establish a solid electrical connection. Other symptoms: visible pitting or burn marks on the contactor face, AC works intermittently, or buzzing from the contactor.

Overview

This OEM contactor (part number 1173690) is the 1-pole, 40-amp, 24V-coil contactor for the ICP/Tempstar/Heil WPG4604130RKA1. When the thermostat calls for cooling, the 24V coil pulls the contacts closed and switches line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan. Contactors are high-cycle wear items: the contacts pit and burn over thousands of cycles, and the coil can fail open. Symptoms of a failing contactor include a unit that hums but will not energize, chattering or buzzing at the contactor, welded contacts that keep the compressor running, or no response at all to a cooling call. Installing the correct 40A 1-pole OEM contactor restores clean, reliable switching to the outdoor unit.
